Other Minds Festival 23: Gala Opening; ODC Theater, San Francisco, CA

Sound Poetry: The Wages of Syntax – Day 1

April 9, 2018 @ 7:30 pm10:00 pm [$40 / $50]

Artists: Anne Waldman, with Karen Stackpole, gongs; Clark Coolidge, with Alvin Curran keyboards and electronics; Michael McClure; Aram Saroyan; Jaap Blonk; Enzo Minarelli.

Legendary figures of the Second Generation of New York School Poets Anne Waldman, Clark Coolidge and Aram Saroyan meet the Beast of the San Francisco Beats, Michael McClure.

With cameo previews by Dutch legend Jaap Blonk and Italian poet/publisher Enzo Minarelli. Composer Alvin Curran visits from Rome to sound out syntax confounder Clark Coolidge in the world premiere of Just About Out Of Nowhere. The Buddhist co-founder of the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodies Poetics at Naropa, Anne Waldman’s readings are performances that remain indelible in the memory. Aram Saroyan’s one word poems are best exemplified by his piece crickets, here given a special treatment by the poet himself. And Michael McClure unleashes his inner beast to intone his Ghost Tantras.

Oral History Initiative: On Anne Waldman; Harvard Houghton Library; Cambridge, MA

Conversation with Anne Waldman & Joshua Kotin

Moderated by Joshua Kotin (author of Utopias of One), this oral history conversation will focus on the communities that have emerged around or intersected with the life and work of poet, performer, activist and relentless force-for-the-good Anne Waldman—including stories about individual poets, friends, and thinkers she’s engaged with as well as such organizations as the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics/Naropa University and the Poetry Project at St. Mark’s Church.

A brief trailer for the forthcoming documentary about Anne Waldman, Outrider: The Temporary Autonomous Zone, may possibly be shown in advance of the event. Stay tuned….

Dharam Gaze: Practices of Buddhism & Poetry; lecture with Anne Waldman; Harvard Divinity School, Cambridge, MA

“Form is emptiness, emptiness is form” – from the Heart Sutra

Based on personal study and experience, this talk will touch on the refuge and Bodhisattva vows, the Six Realms of Existence, “co-emergent wisdom” as well as a parallel vow to poetry, and the joys and contradictions therein. Also, reference to Giorgio Agamben’s notion of being contemporary with one’s time as “looking into the darkness.” The presentation will be supplemented by reference to particular writers associated with the Beat Literary Movement as well as the presenter’s own poetry.
